Chapter 283: Sorting Out the Treasures



Xu Qianghua was the only one who touched the egg, and just like last time, he felt the faint connection between himself and the mysterious object.

This time, however, the bond felt much stronger, as though the egg were reacting to his presence more intentionally.

The moment his hand rested on the smooth surface, the Chaos Qi within his body began to flow toward the egg again like last time, but this time, the process was much smoother.

He observed the process with a mix of curiosity and doubt. This egg clearly had some connection to chaos energy, and whatever was inside it seemed to respond to his presence.

But why?

The thought stayed in his mind as the process continued, the Chaos Qi flowing from his body into the egg.

The others watched in great fanfare, their eyes fixed on the shimmering golden aura surrounding the egg.

Similarly, the egg didn't show any signs of rejection; instead, its glow intensified, pulsing rhythmically as though it was trying to tell him that it was still alive and kicking.

Liu Meiying, standing nearby, watched intently. "Qiangqiang, does it hurt you when it draws your Chaos Qi?"

"No," he replied, shaking his head. "It feels… surprisingly calm and easy, almost like it's meant to happen."

She hummed, her gaze shifting between him and the egg. A thoughtful expression crossed her face.

"This is truly intriguing," she murmured.

Bai Lingyun leaned closer, her sharp eyes studying the egg's faint glow. "There are many spirit beasts cubs that feed on the Qi of their parents or siblings. Maybe this is something similar."

"It's not uncommon for beasts to do so, but how is it possible for a beast to do this while still in its egg state? Could it be a type of spirit beast I'm not aware of?"

"But even if that was the case, what are the chances that a beast with a connection to Chaos comes right here where Brother Qiang has a physique related to it?" Liu Anwei asked, stepping forward.

Yan Yuehua sighed, shaking her head. "This is getting more complicated. We should just leave the egg alone for now and wait for it to hatch before we can think more about it, but we need to study the meteorite's functions."

The rest of the ladies all nodded but their eyes never left the egg, their curiosity growing with each passing moment.

Xu Qianghua, however, remained silent, his hand still resting on the egg. The energy transfer slowed, and the egg wriggled slightly before settling again. He pulled his hand back, letting out a slow breath.

"And just like Yue'er said we'll figure out the egg later," he said. "For now, let's organize everything else. There's a lot here, and we need to make sure nothing goes to waste."

Liu Meiying and Bai Lingyun immediately took charge, each summoning their storage artifacts and setting up a system to categorize the items.

"Start with the spirit stones," Bai Lingyun instructed. "There's a small mountain of them near the entrance."

"I'll handle the herbs," Liu Meiying added. "They need to be sorted by grade and type."

The other women joined in, and their movements were efficient as they worked together to catalog the meteorite's contents.

Yan Yuehua focused on the glowing pill bottles, carefully inspecting each one for its potential uses. Bai Xueyan and Liu Anwei organized the rare metals and crystals, while Huang Xinyi took inventory of the high-grade spiritual artifacts.

Xu Qianghua watched them work, a faint smile on his lips. Their coordination was flawless, a testament to their dedication and capabilities.

He then also went to help them as he focused more on rare and unknown items that no one could identify.

And if you are wondering how all of these items stayed like this without any of them losing their Spiritual Qi, it is mainly because of the formations set up which preserve these items from any harm from the laws of time.

As the hours passed, the women brought him updates on their progress. Liu Meiying approached first, holding a detailed list of the herbs she had sorted.

"There are over a hundred types of herbs here," she reported. "Most of them are extremely rare, and some are even extinct in this part of the void. Whoever left this behind knew what they were doing."

Bai Lingyun followed with a similar report on the spirit stones. "There are thousands of Holy Spirit Stones, as well as a few other types I've never seen before. This alone could sustain the Xu family's cultivation needs for decades."

Yan Yuehua chimed in from across the chamber. "The pills are equally impressive. Many of them are for advanced cultivation stages, and some are specifically tailored for breaking through bottlenecks. This is a treasure trove."

Xu Qianghua nodded, his mind already calculating how to distribute the resources efficiently. "Good work. Once everything is sorted, we'll call the elders to take inventory and decide how best to use these items."

The women exchanged glances; all of them had a happy smile, but they had a slight competitive look in their eyes. It was clear that each of them wanted to impress him with their efforts.

Before long, the treasures were fully organized, and Xu Qianghua activated his family token to summon the elders. As they waited, the women gathered around him near the pedestal holding the egg.

"So, what will you do with it?" Liu Anwei asked, her voice soft.

Xu Qianghua looked at the egg, his expression thoughtful. "I'll keep it for now. Whatever's inside, it's connected to me. I'll let it hatch and then let nature take its course."

The women nodded in agreement, though their curiosity about the egg remained.

When the elders arrived, their reactions to the meteorite's contents were similar to the women's—surprise and disbelief.

But they quickly got back to doing their jobs as they began assessing the resources, their experienced eyes scanning the treasures quickly and then sorting them into four different parts.

Two are useful and two are unuseful, and then the section is further subdivided into the present and the future.
